Darn, I should have known that!

But I had sooo many things to check for that travel that I didn't even think of the list of IVRPA members. Also Mt. Whitney wasn't on my first plan, I just dropped there due to bad weather conditions for my shoot at Lake Isabella.

This whole area is so outstanding I could easily spend a year there.

I'm looking forward to hear from your DVD product.

Well, I confess that there was some luck involved ;)

What really happened is that I thought from viewing Google Earth the day before, that the Portal Road at Mount Whitney could be a good place for a shoot and that there also were campgrounds. But I arrived there when it was dark and had absoultely no idea where I was and what would be waiting for me in the morning.

In fact it turned out, that I had missed the real campground and had parked more or less in it's driveway.

The place already didn't look too bad, but in the first light before the sun came out I decided to drive more towards the mountains but was stopped after a mile because the road was closed.

So I decided to make the best out of it and found this quite nice spot besides the main road. I still have to process the image from the sunrise shoot which might follow the next days, but it wasn't a spherical, though.

My main concern was timing, because the light dramatically changes within 15 Minutes and, if any, you only have one chance each day.

So for a place I never had seen before I should be satisfied with the result.

But I had sooo many things to check for that travel that I didn't even think
of the list of IVRPA members. Also Mt. Whitney wasn't on my first plan, I
just dropped there due to bad weather conditions for my shoot at Lake
Isabella.

This whole area is so outstanding I could easily spend a year there.

What really happened is that I thought from viewing Google Earth the day before, that the Portal Road at Mount Whitney could be a good place for a shoot and that there also were campgrounds. But I arrived there when it was dark and had absoultely no idea where I was and what would be waiting for me in the morning.

In fact it turned out, that I had missed the real campground and had parked more or less in it's driveway.

The place already didn't look too bad, but in the first light before the sun came out I decided to drive more towards the mountains but was stopped after a mile because the road was closed.

So I decided to make the best out of it and found this quite nice spot besides the main road. I still have to process the image from the sunrise shoot which might follow the next days, but it wasn't a spherical, though.

My main concern was timing, because the light dramatically changes within 15 Minutes and, if any, you only have one chance each day.

So for a place I never had seen before I should be satisfied with the result.
